Your TV already has a QAM tuner. Another QAM tuner will do you absolutely no good. It's exactly the same as is inside your TV. There is no box or descrambler that you can legally purchase to descramble the signal. Anything you buy on the internet will do you no good. Don't waste your time or money on these scams. You have to have either the box or the cable card from Comcast in order to descrable the signals. And, don't bother purchasing a Comcast box from someone. The cable companies DO NOT sell these boxes, so any you see for sale are stolen, and will not be authorized by Comcast. They will not work. My cable company scrambled all of their premium digital channels about 3 years ago. It was fun while it lasted.
